The Work

Chad and Z. were looking to update their logo to something bold, friendly, and timeless.The W-shaped dragon pictorial mark was informed by a (very WonderSpark) character description from Z.:

“Sparky the Dragon is a small flying dragon that likes to give good children rides through puffy pink clouds on beautiful summer days. He breathes tiny sparks of lightning that can change bad ideas into good ones. He is the size of a moped and has a mischievous streak but always has a super friendly attitude.”

The wordmark portion of the logo uses Le Super Serif SemiBold* as a base, with customized ligatures for the ‘RK’ and ‘RT’ connections. We finished off the combined logo with a slightly roughened edge and shimmering green colorways.
